The griot and other dishes are praised for balance, heart, and good value, with the setting described as beautiful and the staff as kind and friendly. While overall impressions are very positive, one delivery experience is noted as disappointing when small chicken drumsticks appeared instead of the usual vegetables and the salad was missing dressing.

Review Summary

Mr Patty is described as a Montréal institution with patties that are delicious and flaky in beef, chicken, and veggie varieties. Reviews praise friendly staff and good service, though a few note that customer service could use some improvement. Many say these are homemade rather than store bought, which contributes to a perception of quality and freshness. The prices are described as affordable, with some variation depending on order size and items. The menu often includes chicken roti and weekend offerings like cow foot soup and chicken soup, and there is advice to go early because items can sell out. Patty quality is repeatedly highlighted as among the best in Montreal and even described as the best Jamaican patty in town. Longstanding loyalty and consistency across years are noted, alongside comments about wishing for delivery options to fit modern schedules. Overall the reviews paint a picture of tasty, affordable, authentic Caribbean patties with a welcoming vibe, while also acknowledging occasional service and hours caveats.View restaurant profile
